DT1608C-682 - COILCRAFT

DT1608C-682 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended land pattern for the DT1608C-682?
  The recommended land pattern for the DT1608C-682 is a rectangular pad with a size of 2.5 mm x 1.5 mm, with a non-solder mask defined (NSMD) pad shape.
• How do I handle the thermal considerations for the DT1608C-682?
  The DT1608C-682 has a maximum operating temperature of 125°C. Ensure good airflow around the inductor, and consider using a heat sink or thermal interface material if the inductor will be operating near its maximum temperature rating.
• What is the self-resonant frequency (SRF) of the DT1608C-682?
  The SRF of the DT1608C-682 is not explicitly stated in the datasheet, but it can be estimated using the inductor's inductance and capacitance values. A rough estimate is around 100-150 MHz.
• Can I use the DT1608C-682 in a high-frequency application?
  While the DT1608C-682 is suitable for high-frequency applications, its performance may degrade above 50 MHz due to its core material and construction. Consider using a more specialized high-frequency inductor for applications above 50 MHz.
• How do I ensure the DT1608C-682 meets my specific application's requirements?
  Consult with Coilcraft's application engineers or use their online tools, such as the Inductor Selection Tool, to ensure the DT1608C-682 meets your specific application's requirements, including inductance, current rating, and operating frequency.
